Following the retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli from Test cricket, fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming ODI series to witness their favorite players. India is scheduled to play a 3-match ODI series against Bangladesh from August 17, 2025. The most anticipated event is the October tour for a 3-match ODI series in Australia. Cricket Australia has organized a special farewell for the Indian batsmen, which could be their last ODI series in Australia.
Cricket Australia CEO, Todd Greenberg said, “This might be the last time that we get to see Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma play in our country. And if that is the case, we wanna make sure we give them a great send-off and a reflection of the incredible contribution they have made to international cricket.”
Rohit Sharma, with a debut on June 23, 2007, against Ireland, boasts an outstanding record against Australia, amassing 2407 runs in 46 matches with an average exceeding 57 and a strike rate of 96.01. Virat Kohli, who debuted for India in 2008 against Sri Lanka, has scored 2232 runs in 30 appearances against Australia, averaging 43.76.
